GMC Cabover van box

Post by gentrysgarage » Wed Jan 17, 2018 7:40 pm

As my truck is frameless (junk from the transfercase back) and axleless (loaned them out Presently under a WW2 Brockway), I have found a cabover van box on Craigslist.I will pass this along in the hopes that the karma will flow my way when I am in a position to get one for my cabover!

I couldn't find the picture I saved on my computer but this on is close.

Wishing you LOTS of good karma. Thats a nice piece for sure. I'm wondering if the trailer might be original to the body??

In looking at the trailer photos, it sure seems like that's an original trailer. I'm curious about the floating hubs on the wheels. Ben Hur trailers don't have these, but perhaps that's because they have a lighter load rating.

By coincidence, there's this in the same (general) area: https://losangeles.craigslist.org/lac/c ... 55297.html
